  Mr. TERRY. Mr. Speaker, I offer a motion to lay on the table this 
motion to discharge.

[[Page H10232]]

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Calvert). The Clerk will report the 
motion.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       Mr. Terry moves that the House lay on the table the motion 
     to discharge.


                         Parliamentary Inquiry

  Mr. CARDIN. Mr. Speaker, parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Maryland will state his 
parliamentary inquiry.
  Mr. CARDIN. Mr. Speaker, am I correct that, if this motion to table 
does not carry, the House would then debate for 1 hour my motion; and 
that if it carried, the House would then have an opportunity to vote 
either to sustain or override the President's veto on the Taxpayer 
Refund Relief Act of 1999?
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The adoption of the motion to table would 
constitute a final adverse disposition today of the motion to discharge 
without debate.
  Mr. CARDIN. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to table 
offered by the gentleman from Nebraska (Mr. Terry).
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the ayes appeared to have it.
